Flower Drum Song movie - I Enjoy Being a Girl lyrics

rate me

<br>

I'm a girl, and by me that's only great!<br>

I am proud that my silhouette is curvy,<br>

That I walk with a sweet and girlish gait<br>

With my hips kind of swivelly and swervy.<br>

<br>

I adore being dressed in something frilly<br>

When my date comes to get me at my place.<br>

Out I go with my Joe or John or Billy,<br>

Like a filly who is ready for the race!<br>

<br>

When I have a brand new hairdo<br>

With my eyelashes all in curl,<br>

I float as the clouds on air do,<br>

I enjoy being a girl!<br>

<br>

When men say I'm cute and funny<br>

And my teeth aren't teeth, but pearl,<br>

I just lap it up like honey<br>

I enjoy being a girl!<br>

<br>

I flip when a fellow sends me flowers,<br>

I drool over dresses made of lace,<br>

I talk on the telephone for hours<br>

With a pound and a half of cream upon my face!<br>

<br>

I'm strictly a female female<br>

And my future I hope will be<br>

In the home of a brave and free male<br>

Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.<br>

<br>

When men say I'm sweet as candy<br>

As around in a dance we whirl,<br>

It goes to my head like brandy,<br>

I enjoy being a girl!<br>

<br>

When someone with eyes that smoulder<br>

Says he loves ev'ry silken curl<br>

That falls on my iv'ry shoulder,<br>

I enjoy being a girl!<br>

<br>

When I hear the compliment'ry whistle<br>

That greets my bikini by the sea,<br>

I turn and I glower and I bristle,<br>

But I happy to know the whistle's meant for me!<br>

<br>

I'm strictly a female female<br>

And my future I hope will be<br>

In the home of a brave and free male<br>

Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.<br>
